Role of pacemaking current in cardiac nodes: insights from a comparative study of sinoatrial node and atrioventricular node.

Cardiac pacemaking in the sinoatrial (SA) node and atrioventricular (AV) node is generated by an interplay of many ionic currents, one of which is the funny pacemaker current (If). To understand the functional role of If in two different pacemakers, comparative studies of spontaneous activity and ex...
